Orienteering

Our Orienteering program teaches skills across the curriculum.

We provide students with the opportunity to roam Cascade with a compass and an Ipad. Along the course students complete small challenges that they must complete as a team. This activity fits perfectly into our leadership program, yet, is a fun activity we can slot into any camp.

About this excursion

Students are explicitly taught how to use a compass, take a bearing and how to measure distance. Therefore, crossing into the KLA's of Geography, Mathematics and PDHPE.

Excursion activities

Learn the skills required to navigate solo in the bush and then put these to practice on our custom designed orienteering and Rogaining courses.
